Ground mounted Solar PV Return On Equity

ROE (Return On Equity) and Normal Depreciation cost recovery are higher than the Cost Of Generation (COG) with Interest subsidy from the Government!! The Small Entrepreneurs may also agree to little less ROE due to Self Employment and low cost of Employees in Rural Area.

This is a fit case for a Ground mounted Solar PV energy developer (due to low interest rate) as the COG is only rs 1.72/kwh with Such Interest subsidy i.e project interest rate is only 2%.

Energy supplied to grid can be allowed with a 3 to 5% escalation for a O & M cost recovery and sustainability as the Salaries and project overheads will be affected with Inflation.

Normal Depreciation in any way tax authorities will allow hence a good case due to negative balance sheet due to Solar PV, thus, the profit after depreciation (good tax planning for Small Entrepreneurs with new solar PV or Company ! With no loss on ROE!!)
Less transmission losses, hence, full use of Solar PV power due to point of consumption is very near by in every taluka.

Storage challenge can be addressed at an appropriate time.

Key advantages:

a). We help in creation of many small entrepreneurs with Mentors and Government or Lender's nominee on the Board till the debt and interest payment and also to ensure sincere payment from the Respective state government. Government supported Satyam Computers till revival. Hence, New Generation Entrepreneurs (Engineers with solar PV back ground) can be supported with 20% equity (or private equity for 100% funding with stake control, without collateral security for Debt due to board position/control till loan repayment) and 80% debt from IREDA or FI (at 5% interest rate) thus, depending upon the energy yield, the states have to pay the differential interest subsidy while keeping the energy buying rate (say at rs. 3 to 5/kwh) as constant throughout India with a Policy with business and financial model, so that every taluka can have a minimum 25 MW solar PV to 100 MW per entity (through life time, thus, no large capacity holder to avoid energy tariff cartel or to buy energy at rs. 15/kwh in summer from friendly companies etc through cabinet meetings etc)

b). Job Creation at rural India by SME or new generation Entrepreneurs. Thus, risk of employee turn around gets reduced apart from load on Urban cities or one cluster development which create imbalance of growth in many other states of Taluka places… Energy Inefficiency can be counterbalanced by increased Interest subsidy depending upon energy yield. NO NPAs (Non Performing Assets due to FI Nominee on the Board with Mentoring)

c). Developers need not go to EXIM Bank funding (which is only possible for large corporate with fat balance sheet i.e a mechanism to allow only Rich to become further Rich) and get a compulsion to buy USA made equipment and services, instead, due to low interest rate, we can buy Indian made panels, but, at International price, so that Indian companies must be competitive to supply (no CST or VAT difference, No preference for SEZ or Non SEZ selling etc). The Equipment costs shall be uniform throughout India like importing from abroad. Thus, INDIAN GDP will increase along with protection to Indian Financial Institution.
